Description Studies on “Effect of different organic manures on properties of
soil in relation to growth and yield of mulberry and cocoon
productivity” was conducted at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Chamarajanagar
during 2013-14. The results revealed that, the lowest bulk density (1.45
g/cc), maximum water holding capacity (35.79 %), ideal soil pH (7.95),
EC (0.24 dSm-1), OC (0.71%), available nitrogen (283.42 kg/ha),
phosphorus (49.85 kg/ha), potassium (186.14 kg/ha) in soil, maximum
shoot height (92.30 and 121.63 cm) and more number of shoots/plant
(11.26 and 13.11) were recorded on 45th and 60th DAP, respectively
during second crop,maximum fresh leaf yield/plant and leaf
yield/hectare (939.33 g/plant and 56.32 tonnes /ha / yr), respectively
was recorded after second crop was found significantly higher in V1
mulberry raised with application of 5.88 tonnes of Vermicompost +
recommended N, P & K @ 350: 140: 140 kg / ha / year (T6). The leaf
moisture in tender, medium and coarse leaves (72.01, 70.18 and
69.38%), chlorophyll a (1.79 mg/g),chlorophyll b (0.61 mg/g) and total
chlorophyll (2.33 mg/g) was recorded. Significantly higher matured larval
weight (39.09 and 39.33g/10), shorter fifth larval duration (7.22 and
7.18 days), ERR (95.28 and 96.30%), lower disease incidence (4.10 and
3.25%), maximum cocoon yield (75.32 and 76.03 kg/100 dfls), better
cocoon weight (1.89 and 1.91 g), shell weight (0.365 and 0.371 g), shell
percentage (19.32 and 19.42%), cocoon filament length (924.22 and
938.91 m) and finer denier (2.290 and 2.266) was recorded in first and
second crop, respectively in T6.
